Send us your best photos of Summer in the City
July is here and everyone is waiting for the sunshine to announce that summer has arrived. But when the sun does come out, Britain takes on a Mediterranean feel with barbecues on the beach, picnics in the park or long days backing in the pub garden.
Everyone has a different idea of how a summer’s day in the city is best spent and we want to hear your version. Whether your city of choice is London, Glasgow, Belfast or Brighton, tell us how you like to spend your summer in the city.
The best of the contributions will be published on the travel site throughout the summer and go into a prize draw to win a weekend in London courtesy of Visit London.
The prize winner and guest will enjoy the COMO Shambhala Reviver Spa Package at the Metropolitan hotel, including two nights accommodation, breakfast for two, and two one-hour signature COMO Shambhala massages. To ensure you make the most of your weekend you can choose from a range of London attractions, free with the London Pass.
